Im looking to simplify my car as much as i can. Just looking for hints or maybe another post that can show me how to remove my ac system. And if possiable my power steering. I have an 87 auto. Gll i believe with the climate control. Thank you

 

Decided not to remove power steering looks like a lot of work. But i cant get it to swivel in to remove the belt.

 

removing it will just complicate things if you dont know what your doing.




dont fix it if it aint broke

 

^^^ +1.

Also, to be LEGAL, you have to properly evacuate R12 systems, which costs $$$ to be done by your local a/c shop.

 

ya its illegal to vent it into the air

 

Well how do i take the belt off either way cause i have to put a new alternator belt on

 

Don't take offense to this statement, but if you don't know how to take off an a/c or alternator belt, I suggest taking the car to a mechanic to do the work.

But, if you do feel so inclined to do the work yourself, buy a FSM / Haynes repair manual.

Or download the FSM here: http://www.xenonz31.com/reference.html

 

cut them in half. then all you have to do is figure how to replace the ones you need.

 

I got everything off except the bolt. I just dont know if theres a bolt i cant find or if its hard to get to cause it wont swing in. I have a haynes manual and it says theres a centering bolt somewhere. Cant find it. Let you know how i make out today

 

All good
